Screen fatigue kills portfolios faster than market crashes. When you're scrolling aimlessly between charts, that's your signal to step back. Impatience bred from boredom breeds the worst trade entries. The real skill isn't spotting opportunities—it's knowing when to close the laptop and let the market breathe. Your next best trade might be the one you never made.

ngl, this hits different after watching people panic-liquidate across fragmented liquidity pools during the 2023 bridge chaos. seen too many traders get rekt not because the trade was bad, but because they couldn't stop refreshing their positions. it's like monitoring attack vectors 24/7—burnout breeds blind spots, and blind spots create exploit opportunities for the market itself.

Really, in the past month, all my losses are because I was idly scrolling through K-line charts...

This really hit home for me. A few days ago, I was staring at the candlestick chart until I was dizzy, and in the end, a terrible trade caused me to lose two weeks of gains. Going long or short isn't the problem; the scariest thing is the habit of not being able to stay idle. That's right, doing nothing is the highest level of trading.

Really, I've been repeatedly exploited like this recently... Watching the market so obsessively gives me a headache, and I end up losing even more.

Really, no matter how good your market intuition is, it can't withstand the madness of watching the market every day. I should have listened to this advice long ago.
